Anti-Pinch Nail Polish

If you’re looking in your closet right now and scratching your head about the complete lack of green, fear not! I’ve got the perfect solution to save you from getting pinched this St. Patrick’s Day. This green nail polish will come in handy for saving you from pinchy fingers.

The reason we use isopropyl alcohol first, is to disperse the pigment, allowing it to then disperse easily in the nail polish base. If you don’t do this step first, the pigment could end up being slightly clumpy, or not fully incorporated in your final mixture. I hope this helps 🙂

That would be such a cute idea! You could make a batch of nail polish base with either the Heavy Metal Gold Mica, Gold Light Mica, or Gold Sparkle Mica and use it as a top coat or a quick splash of colors on your nails. =)

As for nail hardener, I haven’t actually tested this yet, but I have been pondering whether adding silk powder to nail polish base would accomplish something beneficial, or if it would just use up my silk powder and make a mess.

I’m probably going to try it soon and find out; after all, what’s the worst that could happen?

That’s a great post Anne-Marie ! I love it ! I also would like to know if you know of a nail hardener recipe i could put in those cute bottles ‘ I have thin nails that tear off & turn up on the tips ? Thank you for all your great posts ! I love bramble berry.

Currently, we don’t have any recipes for a nail hardener that you could add to the bottles, but we will put it on our list to look out for. Have you had a chance to check out our other nail polish tutorials and blog posts?
